Coming around to the view that a certain kind of narcissist simply needs Musk to be a genius rather than a fraud, because they want to believe there’s a hereditary Brahmin class of accomplished, beautiful minds—and that they’re a part of that class.

Carter hasn’t even been in the ground for two months yet and his legacy is already under attack.

This bill would kill Delaware’s dominance in corporate law. And considering Delaware finances its government through corporate fees, it also risks Delaware being forced to raise taxes elsewhere.

I thought I’d look into how EEO laws work in the military. You can file EEO complaints for racial or sexual discrimination. You file those complaints with the JAG. You know, the ones Trump fired along with all the Black and women officers.

The U.S. Government made a legal commitment to keep some information it collects highly restricted to avoid the possibility of harm. So the legal standard cannot be we have to wait until there is actual harm to remedy the situation. M

@raskin.house.gov understands this. We need to be out there and loudly occupying the moral center, inviting people of all stripes to join us.

So Trump saying he can fire all administrative law judges is basically a prelude to him removing all the judges from the MSPB, which leaves federal employees no avenue to appeal their firings.

Because I was in the military, I've been saying this a long time. Active duty forces are not going to acquiesce to Trump ordering them to commit action against American civilians. If we see that, it will most likely be federalized National Guard troops.

Oh one more thing. Notice how much of this opinion cites Gorsuch and Alito. Fucking chef's kiss.

Reading through this order is remarkable for the parts that rake DOJ lawyers over the coals. For example, footnote 10 points out that the government doesn't even understand vagueness under the Due Process Clause. And p.47 points out the government refused to define DEI during oral argument.

I swear, I would like to go back to not reading through court decisions at 11:13 pm on a Friday night because the future of our country depends on the courts right now.

It would be fascinating if Brown could actually raise an EEOC complaint related to this action. His boss essentially already showed racial bias prior to taking the action. But it's the military and soldiers take orders, even those at the top.

It’s a death cult. They worship the loss of life, and take joy in forcing more death on anyone they can.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

FWIW, the JAG’s advise on whether combat operations are lawful or not, among many other things. So, if you want to deploy troops domestically…

The thing that gets me: now that Trump is attacking the military, is that going to provoke a Republican response? Or will they remain too afraid of their own shadows?

It's weird how everyone in the world knows a Nazi salute when we see it, with the notable exception of journalists and their editors.

The lack of command experience in combat is probably the most chilling thing about this choice.

Firing all of the JAGs (Judge Advocates General)—the top lawyers in each service branch—is just as bad as, if not worse than, firing (most of) the Joint Chiefs.
